“As Attorney General, it is my job to enforce the laws of the state of Washington,” said Ferguson. “Under the Consumer Protection Act, it is unlawful to discriminate against customers based on sexual orientation.

So based on this it would unlawful for the florist to not allow a pedophile to send a dozen red roses to a 10 year old.

I’m guessing the florist doesn’t own any guns, or we would already be reading that they had been confiscated.

She's clearly not refusing service to them because of their sexual orientation. The article clearly states that both of these men had been her customers for years. She presumably had sold them both flowers regardless of their personal sexual arousal pattern.

If they had sent their straight friend over to place the order for the flowers, she would have still declined because it was for an activity --- not a disfavored person, but an activity --- she could not morally support.

It had nothing to do with any animus against the individual person who came to the counter.

Your laws cannot override ones right to practice their religion freely.

Business owners need to stand up to this BS all over the country!
